I Am the Grandson of the Second Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Earning 100 Million Taels at the Beginn

Chapter 107 Hello, for the dead ghost. (seeking a monthly ticket)
"Master Lu, what does His Highness Grandson say? There are still 500 horses in the camp, why don't I lead people out to fight the enemy and escort His Highness Grandson away first."

As soon as he arrived at Lu Xin's side, the garrison general immediately put forward his suggestion.

Sitting at the door of the big tent, holding a sword and swearing to protect His Royal Highness Lu Xin to the death.

He glanced at the garrison general and shook his head, "The situation outside is unknown, and it's too dangerous to leave with His Highness the Grandson. We just need to stick to the camp and half the city, and wait until dawn to come back from the Shenji Camp to rescue."

"But…"

Seeing that Lu Xin disagreed, the garrison general wanted to fight for it again.

Now that he is dealing with crimes, if he doesn't get some credit, he will feel a little uncertain.

"No buts."

Before the garrison general could say anything, Lu Xin said sternly: "This is an order from His Royal Highness, don't tell me you can't do it if you want to disobey it."

The garrison general opened his mouth, glanced at the closed big tent, flicked his cloak and walked aside, sulking.

"call!"

After driving away the garrison general, Lu Xin heaved a sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that this guy would rush in and find no one in the tent.

Time passed by little by little, and in the blink of an eye, the morning star rose in the east.

"It's almost there, isn't it?"

Glancing at the morning star in the east, Lu Xin muttered something in a low voice.

According to the discussion between the two of them yesterday, the bright star of Venus was the signal to retreat.

"woooooooo~"

Suddenly, a horn sounded.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of rumbling horseshoes and killing shouts came from a distance.

The garrison general who was sitting on the side sulking stood up abruptly and looked in the direction of the sound of horseshoes.

Do these bandits have cavalry?

"Great, the cavalry from the Shenji Battalion are back."

Just when the garrison general was puzzled, Lu Xin suddenly roared excitedly.

Hearing that it was the cavalry from the Shenji Battalion, the garrison general heaved a sigh of relief.

The Shenji Battalion has 2000 cavalry.

Outside this wide city, the gang of bandits who didn't carry many bows and crossbows couldn't resist at all.

"Everyone listens to the order. The reinforcements have arrived. The Shenji Battalion is in charge of dispatching the camp to wipe out the rebels. The garrison of Jinan Prefecture immediately enters the city to take back the city."

Just when everyone stretched their necks and looked in the direction of the killing cry.

The curtain of the large tent behind Lu Xin was lifted, and grandson Zhu Zhangui walked out with his whole body on, holding a sword in his hand, announcing the next order.

"The last general takes orders!"

The garrison general, who was also stretching his neck to look at the battlefield, heard Zhu Zhangui's order, knelt down on one knee and received the order loudly, and quickly summoned his men to prepare to counterattack the city!
"Your Highness!"

Looking at Zhu Zhangui who suddenly appeared, Lu Xin bowed his hands, then looked up at Zhu Zhangui.

Zhu Zhangui smiled at him and said softly, "23."

Lu Xin was overjoyed suddenly.

23 shi of grain is enough to solve the initial problems.

the other side.

After summoning his garrison generals, he led his men and frantically headed towards the northern city.

He had expected a fierce battle.

But when they arrived at the place, they were shocked to find that there was no sign of a bandit.

"Fucking late, let them run away."

Looking at the empty granary and the scattered corpses on the ground, the guard general threw his helmet to the ground angrily.

"Report~"

Just when the garrison general was considering whether to go out of the city to chase him.

A soldier hurried over.

Looking at the panic-stricken soldiers, the garrison general asked angrily, "What happened again?"

The soldier swallowed, and pointed to an area in the city.

"General Qi, when we were looking for the bandits just now, we found that the entire Lin family was wiped out and the house was in a mess. It was obviously robbed."

"Damn!"

The garrison general was stunned for a moment, kicked the soldier over, and rushed towards the Lin family.

The reason why this guy is in such a hurry is because his favorite concubine is the daughter of the young master of the Lin family.

After all, he can be regarded as the son-in-law of the Lin family.

And more importantly, part of his money is still in the Lin family.

He ran wildly all the way, and when he arrived, he saw that the soldiers of Shenji Battalion had already taken over the Lin family.

The great-grandson Zhu Zhangui was holding a letter in his hand, and he was talking with the chief envoy Lu Xin.

Since the voices of the two were not loud, the garrison general could only vaguely hear the words of collusion and secret communication with the bandits.

"See Your Highness, I have met Master Lu!"

The approaching garrison general clasped his fists and saluted.

Zhu Zhangui looked at him and asked, "How is it?"

The garrison general bowed his head in shame.

"By the time His Highness was about to rush over, the bandits had already fled. The Lin family's granary had been emptied, and other losses were still being confirmed."

Zhu Zhangui nodded, and asked suddenly: "I heard that you and the Lin family are in-laws!"

Although he didn't know why Zhu Zhangui asked this question instead of asking about the bandits, the garrison general replied honestly: "Your Highness, the last general's concubine is the daughter of the eldest son of Lin."

Zhu Zhangui nodded and looked at Lu Xin, then waved his hand and ordered: "Take this person down."

The garrison general froze for a moment, but before he realized what was going on, he was pushed to the ground by Zhu Zhangui's guards.

"Your Highness, I don't know what crime the general has committed? Please explain it to the general so that the general can understand."

"Although half of the city was lost, the general is also responsible, but when the general was preparing to lead troops to counterattack, the chief envoy stopped the general and caused such a loss. Your Highness, please learn from me!"

Zhu Zhangui looked at the garrison general calmly, "Let's not talk about the fact that the bandits entered the city and caused half of the city to be lost. Let me ask you, is Sima, the gatekeeper of the north city gate, your nephew?"

The garrison general's heart tightened.

Although he couldn't figure out why his nephew Huitong was a bandit.

But the bandits did come in swaggeringly from the North City.

And my nephew and hundreds of soldiers guarding the city also disappeared mysteriously.

If the government is not strict, the city will be lost.

He can't escape this guilt, and he can't escape it.

Looking at the garrison general who bowed his head, Zhu Zhangui indifferently lit up the letter in his hand.

"The Lin family had an affair with the bandits, and colluded with the bandits in an attempt to assassinate me, in order to achieve an ulterior secret."

"How is this possible? If they are illicit with the bandits, why would the bandits kill them?"

The garrison general quickly defended himself loudly.

As for his nephew, at most he was not strict with his orders, and according to the court law, at most he would be dismissed from office and exiled.

But he can't stick to the charge of colluding with bandits and intending to assassinate the grandson.

This damn is a serious crime against the Nine Clans.

Zhu Zhangui sneered, and threw the letter in front of the garrison general.

"Because the bandit leader is not stupid. He went into the city to rob. Although the imperial court will encircle and suppress him, at most they will send some troops to wipe them out, and they will not force them to death."

"But if they assassinate me, the imperial court will definitely use all their strength to encircle and suppress them."

"By the way, the reason why I arrested you is not only about your nephew, but also the last content of the letter."

The garrison general lowered his head and stared blankly at the letter that fell in front of him.

This is a letter written by the bandit leader, which details the cause of the incident.

Said that they were only forced by life, so they went to the city to plunder food.

Sending people to attack Shenjiying was just to entangle Shenjiying and prevent them from coming to beat them.

They also stated in the letter that they did not harass the people when they entered the city, but only took food.

After they get the food and leave, they will immediately disband and become the people of Ming Dynasty honestly.

In order to hide their names and not be pursued by the court in the future, they killed members of the Lin family who knew their identities, and revealed that the Lin family wanted to murder the grandson.

At the end of the letter, the gang of bandits also provided a message.

Some time ago, the relief food was burned, and it was the Lin family who ordered the garrison general to do it.

And it shows that those that were burned were not actually food, but empty warehouses and some straw.

The real food had already been taken to the Lin family's warehouse by the garrison general.

"Slander... This is all slander, Your Highness... The general is loyal to the imperial court, and even fought for His Majesty for many years. How could the general do such a rebellious and unscrupulous thing."

Zhu Zhangui sneered at the struggling garrison general.

If this letter was left by a real bandit, he would still be skeptical, thinking that it might be a conspiracy by the bandit.

But bandits are not real.

And this information was confessed by Sima, the gatekeeper in the north of the city.

As a garrison general, when the court's disaster relief food arrives, it is necessary for the garrison general to send someone to guard it.

With such a unique opportunity, the garrison general thought about swallowing up this batch of relief food and handing it over to his father-in-law for sale, so as to earn a fortune.

After the food was delivered, in order to prevent the court from finding out, the garrison general asked his confidant, who was also his nephew, to set fire to the empty disaster relief grain storage warehouse.

"Is it slander, explain it to Jin Yiwei and the officials of the Ministry of Punishment!"

Zhu Zhangui waved his hand, and the two guards dragged away the garrison general who cried out loudly.

Looking at the garrison general who was dragged away.

Lu Xin felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

He seemed to understand.

His Royal Highness, this guy is planning to let this guy top the tank!

Think about it too.

The city was breached by bandits, more than 23 shi of grain were robbed, and hundreds of people were killed, which even involved the theft of disaster relief food.

Although the Lin family should die, they should not die at the hands of bandits.

With so many things happening, the imperial court must be held accountable, and someone must stand up and be responsible for this matter.

Although Zhu Zhangui is the biggest here, he is a grandson, so it is impossible for him to be pulled out to top the tank.

He, Lu Xin, is a member of His Royal Highness, and he also participated in these matters, so it is impossible for him to take the blame.

And it happened that this garrison general embezzled the relief food some time ago.

As a general defending the city, it is a serious dereliction of duty if the city that is not defended is captured by bandits.

And it's the worst kind.

If you said that it was captured by the rebel army, it would be understandable, after all, the other party can also be regarded as an army.

What are bandits?
That's the garbage of garbage.

You are a dignified garrison general, but the city was breached by bandits, you are simply incompetent waste.

He made a big mistake before, and he was responsible for losing the city, so he was not under Taisun's subordinates.

If you are not pulled out to take the blame, who will take the blame.

As for whether this guy will say something that shouldn't be said during interrogation in the future.

Lu Xin was not worried at all.

He can assure it with his toes.

Before the sun comes out, this guy will definitely commit suicide and write his guilt on the wall.

The reason why Lu Xin is so clear about the next fate of the garrison general is because this routine is already the most common routine in the officialdom.

Throughout the officialdom of the Chinese court, apart from those who were willing to take the blame, there were a few who were forced to take the blame and lived for more than 12 hours.

Thinking about the fate of the garrison general, Lu Xin couldn't help looking at the corpses moved by the soldiers, and Zhu Zhangui who was appointing a new garrison general.

With a low sigh, I couldn't help feeling in my heart:
"Everyone in the world says that people in the officialdom are ruthless and ruthless, but they don't know that people in the royal family are more ruthless and ruthless than officials."
